Patterson: Finely divided otaku or warm everyday?

Ewell 2021-12-30 17:21:40

After reading it with my friends today, we had a routine plot discussion, only to find that our two opinions are so different...

Friend: This is a poem, a song like a cry, rooted A quiet little love poem about living in a small town.
I think: Girlfriend Lola is actually a delusion in Patterson's mind, and it has never existed. This is the lonely story of how an otaku embraced him.

Spoiler You Lei's statement is as follows: The

most important common sense for watching movies is that "every shot must be meaningful."
Every prop, every position, every expression, every scene must be carefully considered and designed.

So every scene is actually deeply buried.

Patterson’s repeated actions day after day and straightforward poems are all to prove that he is not lonely or lonely. In fact, someone loves himself deeply and tries to justify himself and prevent his delusions from being deceived. Debunk.

Sorting out some contradictory fragments and the meaning behind them:

1. I went to the bar every day, and then after drinking, I blacked out and lost consciousness and came to the early morning of the next day.
Bars are actually conflicting scenes in all emotional dramas between men and women.
There is no bar at all, this is Patterson's own theater.
Everyone in the bar is Patterson himself.
The boss stole the money in the boss's piggy bank, which later turned into 286 yuan for Laura to take Patterson to dinner and watch a movie.
There are very few bars without TV in the real world. After all, they are American people who love to drink while watching games.
After drinking and losing consciousness, you can create art at home by yourself and continue to play the role of Laura.
It's just a person who was drunk at home, so pitiful...

2. Laura can tell the conversation between Patterson and other people in different scenes that day, such as photos of water fall.
Obviously, because Laura is Patterson herself.
The owner of the bar can also just say what Lola said (the bus may turn into a burning fireball or something like a bird), after all, everyone is Patterson.

3. Laura bought a guitar called the Harley Quinn Harley Quinn
suicide squad. She is known to be a crazy lover.
And just bought a teaching DVD can play two passages, people who can play guitar should know that this probability is very low, unless it is a rare genius.

4. playing chess with his boss
is a metaphor

on the bus 5. The two black brothers have been working girl will love them in fantasy
is also a metaphor

6. Marvin bark
each time with Lola Patterson show affection in time, There will be a close-up shot of Ma Wen barking.
Laura is idle at home every day, but Patterson must have taken Marvin for a walk to the bathroom.
Laura didn't take Marvin to the weekend market, because Laura couldn't take it at all.

7. Twins There are
6 pairs of twins in this film. In addition to Lola and the cheetah girl in Saturday's horror movie, Marvin said that the two of them look exactly the same and are almost twins, there are 7 pairs.
It's fine separation, I'm too lonely, so I need another one's company.

8. The black brother Romeo in the bar said that he is an actor
is a metaphor, after all, all of them are played by Patterson himself.

9.
Patterson, the rap guy at the laundry, said he is great. After all, rap guys are also alone, performing constantly, wanting others to love him.

10. Secret Notebook
Lola was able to tell that a certain poet also had a secret notebook, and said that she knew it by looking at it casually. Patterson was very surprised. Well, even though Patterson said he didn't know about it, Laura helped him to add it. It's normal for two people to make up for each other's dialogue.
I said that I would take a photocopy on a good weekend, but Patterson deliberately took it out of the basement and put it on the sofa on Saturday (the director arranged a lens with notes), "accidentally" made Marvin bitten. In this way, you don't have to fulfill the promise of photocopying your notes, and hide your love for Laura and your loneliness forever.

11. Patterson
can tolerate boyfriends who don’t have mobile phones, and girlfriends who don’t have mobile phones simply don’t exist, okay! ! !
And she is a girlfriend who has a mobile phone and an ipad every day at home. ! !
After all, if you don't have a mobile phone, you don't need to communicate with others, you don't need to disclose Laura's existence, and you don't need to lie.

12. The Japanese uncle
doesn't actually exist, and it was Patterson's own brain that made up for it.
The Japanese uncle’s hand was injured. There is a close-up shot. I’m not sure about this. It may refer to the broken secret notebook first generation. He turned into a human form and gave him a secret notebook second generation. You can continue to delusion. It's really a random guess, but I'm serious about the other items)

13. Would you rather to be a fish?
There are so many kinds of animals, why do you want to be a fish ?
Because fish are the only creatures that have no intelligence, no blood, no way to hug each other, they are lonely and cannot experience loneliness.

14.
I was in a daze during the shooting , but I guess it should be meaningful. Welcome to brainstorm.

15. Night shift driver The
night shift driver is probably the hardest person in the film. As a day driver in the same position, Patterson has the same socioeconomic status and should also have financial distress. As a result, he can still afford a beautiful woman who is idle all day long! ! ! ! ! !

16. The oranges in the lunch box are painted all over the eyes, which
is a sign of fineness.

17. The whole family has black and white lines, circles, and eyes
are also very common signs of neurosis.

18. Patterson often fell into a trance when driving.
Every time the lens in front of him became blurred, superimposed on many scenes, and then stacked a face of Lola, returning to normal. It's fine division. Because of fine division, so fine division.

19. The matchbox is
flammable and explosive. From the beginning of the movie, this precarious story, an illusory and fragile love.

20. Laura is here in love with Patterson
. Let us take a worldly look. This is actually an unlikely thing.
Laura is passionate, beautiful, and pursues change, and she loves the simple, quiet and immutable Patterson.
Laura doesn't call, Laura has no friends.

21. On Saturday, the horror movie
Patterson looked at the audience next door. It was a gay couple.
Well, because he actually came out to watch movies with himself.

Probably so, the other details are similar.
However, it is very beautiful, it is a supreme love poem for this quiet town and for the unpretentious self. In fact, he can live enthusiastically, sing life, speak childish words, believe that he will suddenly become famous, suddenly become rich, which are all dreams that Patterson yearns for but dare not speak.
Five-star praise.
